Hold up, wait a minute, put a little love in it...

Stupid Risk.  I'm losing both games pretty miserably.  It's depressing.  Patrick is absolutely dominating in one of the games, and in the other game everyone else is pretty even, but I'm suffering from some major suckage.

 

So, I was thinking about fundraising for the Mexico trip, and I wondered what it would cost to get a bunch of greeting cards printed.  I could design some in like two seconds, it would just be a matter of getting them printed and selling them.  That would be pretty sweet.  I'm going to figure out where Kim got the Birthright ones printed and see how much those cost.  I think it's a good idea.  The singing telegram idea is good, too, but we'd need to learn some songs or something.  The silent auction will be pretty sweet too.  Maybe I could scrapbook a few boxes of blank cards to sell for that.  That would be cool.  I have lots of ideas.  I need to write them down or something.

 

So, today, I'm working.  Putting a year's worth of receipts in envelopes, organized by month.  Yep.  Fun stuff.  Not really.

 

So, this Risk game is going really badly, so I'm attempting to play it safe and stick with my one continent for awhile while Patrick and Nate duke it out for the rest of the world.  I almost have a set.  After that I can try and fly in under the radar and either succeed or fail miserably.  Most likely the latter.  But, I'll have fun doing it, because it's Risk, and I've recently decided that I love Risk.  I also love Barnes and Noble, and I'm trying right now to decide what to do with my gift cards.  I think I'm going to get some used stuff, and then when me and Em go to Des Moines sooner or later I'll use the rest of my gift cards.  Sounds pretty sweet to me.

 

I'm sleepy.  I wish I could take a nap.

 

Sincerely,
